FAQs

Is this skirt true to size?

Yes, it is designed for a standard UK fit, but consider the structure of the fitted waistband when choosing your size.

Can I wear this in the autumn?

While primarily designed for warm weather, it can be styled with boots and a light cardigan for transitional weather.

Does the skirt feature a lining?

The skirt is made from high-quality linen; however, given the nature of broderie anglaise, you may consider a slip if you desire extra opacity.

How should I store this to avoid creasing?

Hanging is best, but if space is limited, fold it along the seams to minimize hard lines in the fabric.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is not recommended, as heat can cause linen to shrink and may damage the delicate cutwork patterns.

Troubleshooting

Stubborn wrinkles in linen fabric

Lightly mist the fabric with water and use a steam iron to smooth out creases effectively.

Snagging of the delicate broderie cutwork

Be mindful of sharp jewellery or rough surfaces. If a thread pulls loose, carefully trim it with small fabric scissors rather than pulling.

Discolouration or yellowing

Use a gentle, non-chlorine bleach or a fabric-safe whitening agent specifically designed for delicate natural fibres.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, breathable linen material
  • Sophisticated geometric broderie anglaise pattern
  • Flattering midi length suitable for various occasions
  • Versatile silhouette that pairs easily with multiple tops

Cons

  • Requires careful laundering due to delicate cutwork
  • White fabric is prone to staining
  • Linen material is naturally prone to wrinkling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your skirt in optimal condition, adhere to the following guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle with cold water to protect the broderie anglaise patterns.
  2. Drying: Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can shrink linen. Lay the garment flat to dry in the shade to maintain the shape and colour brightness.
  3. Ironing: Iron while slightly damp using a medium-hot setting to remove wrinkles without scorching the linen fibres.
  4. Storage: Keep the skirt on a padded hanger or folded loosely to prevent deep creasing. Avoid storing in direct sunlight to prevent yellowing of the white fabric.
